Euro-Mediterranean Youth Platform

The majority is totally in a weak situation to change the difficult way of living in all the cities. There is a gap of wealth between young people who benefit from good studies and others who follow bad programmes of education. Finally, I hope to be part of the change in our country.

In my country, the problem is the lack of youth information. The majority of the young do not know what happens in general concerning youth policies, different youth programmes, etc.

Young people in my country represent approximately 75% of the entire population. They are enthusiastic and hard-working. But the root of trouble is that they find no work opportunities offered to them, when they finish their studies. Thus, they face some negative aspects such as drug addiction, adventure in illegal immigration to the other part of the Mediterranean Sea looking for fresh start. Hundreds were caught or died through this experience. They do not like to go to school anymore. Some belong to large families and that means they are limited in their abilities to face challenges.

More young people take part in activities on sustainable development but they are not interested in objectives like culture, peace and tolerance.
